We are committed to making sure that people across Derby benefit from this investment through the chance to both watch and take part in sport.

Bondholder Derby City Council has approved a £2.4 million investment to fund a major redevelopment at Derbyshire County Cricket Club.

The creation of state-of-the-art facilities at The 3aaa County Ground is a flagship project for Derby. As well as raising the profile of Derbyshire cricket both nationally and internationally, it will create jobs for local people, opportunities for local businesses and will increase visitor numbers, bringing additional spending power to Derby.

This is a landmark moment in the 145-year history of our Club.

— Chris Grant, Chairman of Derbyshire County Cricket Club
